I chose the bypass because I have seen alot of people in my support group struggle with the lapband.They can get things that are soft or liquid down.If she is an icecream lover such as myself she will still be able to gorge herself on it.With the bypass there is something called dumping syndrome.When you eat something you should not eat you feel sick.Some people do not have this but many do.I am hoping that I do.That is just my 2 cents.I wish her luck in whatever she chooses.Kudos to you for being a good friend
